Hello folks! We've been a little quiet lately but we're still here! While the tie in our city-wide vote was disappointing, we wanted to continue fighting for union representation. We have now filed for union application at a single store in Lethbridge. /1

Ed Markey berates Howard Schultz for refusing to show up to bargain with @sbworkersunited and calls out his hypocrisy.
“These workers are just like your father and they have no rights.”
Our trans siblings need us now more than ever. We need protections NOW #TransDayOfVisibility #TransRightsAreHumanRights

The Schultz Family Foundation partnered with Harvard Business to review worker outcomes at America's 250 largest companies.
Starbucks ranked in the bottom 50, behind companies with notably poor workplace reputations like Walmart and Dollar General.

#solidarity with our friends @SBWorkersUnited in the US! A win for one is a win for all ✊️ #UnionStrong #UnionYes #UnionsForAll #BetterWorkNow #StrongerTogether
A year ago today, a group of working class baristas organized the first unionized Starbucks store in the United States. In the span of one year, we went from ZERO unionized Starbucks stores to 270 and almost 7,000 union workers. #SBWU1YearStrong

A big “thank you” to everyone for their support with our effort. Thank you to our union organizers for their tireless work on the campaign over the past few months. Thank you to @USWDistrict3 for you words of wisdom and encouragement, and thank you to ALL partners who voted. /1
We appreciate and recognize our workers’ legal ability and right to organize, and we thank the folks at the ALRB for their phone calls, opportunities to ask questions, and the answers they gave us. /2
